"I kid you not. If you're just hearing this for the first time, you're a welfare recipient, just getting up. There is an effort underway to exempt all 535 members of the House and the Senate from the horrors and the expense of Obamacare."

"Obamacare won't just bankrupt the country. It may bankrupt small businesses. It may bankrupt individuals."

"Why is freedom such a hard sell? That's the question. In this country, why has the idea of individual liberty and responsibility become such a hard sell? That's something I never thought would happen here."

"You know, if we had a Republican administration in the White House doing this kind of stuff, there would be hell raised. The people of this country are being punished for the advancement of a political agenda.""You know, folks, I almost hope, I almost hope that Congress does carve out an exemption for themselves and their aides from Obamacare, just to see if anybody cares."

"I hate to tell you, but the Republicans might screw everything up here by going ahead and passing the Gang of Eight bill. The Republicans are so cowed over all of this, the Republicans are so scared that they might go ahead and vote for it, eliminating any need for Obama to make a campaign issue out of it."

"Rather than trying to make it easier to make a buck for everybody, we're gonna say it's hard to make a buck in brick and mortar and we're gonna make it just as hard to make a buck on the Internet. That's how cockamamie things have become."

"I used to have a phrase: Liberalism is spreading misery equally. And now the ruling class throughout Washington seems to have adopted this."

"The Politico did a story that the Gang of Eight, immigration bill, if signed into law, will be a political bonanza for the Democrat Party, and what we've been saying here, it will register nine million new Democrats. It will be the end of the Republican Party for a generation, 25 or 30 years. Politico published that story."

"So the Democrats have two issues to run on: gun control, immigration, Republicans hate both, Republicans hate this, Republicans don't care if kids get killed, all that. I hate to tell you, but the Republicans might screw everything up here by going ahead and passing the Gang of Eight bill."

"The Republicans have bought into the idea that people hate them because they're opposed to everything."

"You know, folks, I almost hope, I almost hope that Congress does carve out an exemption for themselves and their aides from Obamacare, just to see if anybody cares."

"The crafting of punitive legislation like Obamacare mandating that every citizen abide by it, but the elites exempting themselves from it, that has caused trouble throughout world history, throughout human history."

"Gang of Eight immigration, supposed to sail through the Senate for the Democrats. It's got things in it that are so reprehensible to Republicans, the theory is that they'll vote it down and Obama's got another campaign issue going into 2014, and that is, Republicans hate Hispanics, Republicans don't like Hispanics, Republicans don't want Hispanics to have equal rights, blah, blah. You can hear all the commercials and ads now."

"Steny Hoyer's salary this year is $193,400 a year. And the hit that he would take would be devastating, if he had to subject himself to Obamacare. So they're gonna exempt themselves."

"If you're just hearing this for the first time, you're a welfare recipient, just getting up. There is an effort underway to exempt all 535 members of the House and the Senate from the horrors and the expense of Obamacare."

"Rather than trying to make it easier to make a buck for everybody, we're gonna say it's hard to make a buck in brick and mortar and we're gonna make it just as hard to make a buck on the Internet. That's how cockamamie things have become."

"Kirsten Gillibrand, the senator from New York, wants to close a tax loophole for corporate jets and use that money to reinstate air traffic controllers nationwide. Because corporate jets do not pay the same tax as the airlines, it's not fair, it's an unfair burden and we gotta get that tax rate up, then we can hire back the air traffic controllers. See, we just need more tax increases, fix everything."

"Despite nearly $200 million in taxpayer loans, not one car has been made in America, not one electric car to save the planet, has been made in America by Fisker, despite $200 million in loans. Now, if you were able to get $200 million in loans, do you think you would build something?"

"We don't hear much anymore about reducing taxes and reducing costs for people who are burdened. We're hearing that we gotta spread the burden equally so that everybody is burdened. When did we become that?"

"The Democrats are the ones that create things like Obamacare. The Democrats want amnesty. The Democrats are trying to grow government. The Democrats are limiting people's ability to earn a living. The Democrats are making it harder to get a job. The Democrats are making college more expensive. Why shouldn't that stuff be opposed? Why isn't there honor in opposing that?"

"After you've got your $200,000 student loan debt, what do you have to show for it? What are you actually qualified to do? Unless you go to the Ivy League which trains you to become a ruling class government person -- well, yeah, you train to whine about the debt, but you're trained about how unjust and unfair and how much injustice there is. It's a crying shame."

"This whole bill, Obamacare, the whole thing, folks, is a lie. It isn't affordable. It's called the Affordable Care Act. It isn't."
